Restores William Walters and his son Henry to their rightful place among America's great art collectors, telling the story of the development of the Walters Art Gallery in Baltimore, one of the most important small museums in North America. Describes William's rise to prominence as a regional tycoon and the role he and his son played in Baltimore's cultural life and in the formative years of other major museums. Discusses their art-buying trips and relations with art dealers and other collectors, and examines the politics of art collecting during the late 19th century and early 20th century. Includes 66 b&w photos and 16 pages of color photos highlighting famous pieces in the collection.
